Not in the Job Description

"I hope I'm not being put in charge of the kids because I'm a woman," Joan said. "Because believe me, I do not have a lot of mothering instincts."

"I am hurt that you would think that, Watson," Sherlock said, giving her his big-eyed detective look. "Obviously you've been elected because of the three adults present, you are the least useful to this investigation."

"So you think the wizard is going to be more help than I would be?" Joan said.

"He is a trained investigator, you are an apprentice investigator," Sherlock explained. "It's merely a matter of seniority. Don't take it personally. Besides, they're charming children. Not sticky at all. That's unusual. You'll be fine."

Joan glared at him. "You owe me big time," she said.

"Agreed," he said.

"Every two hours," she added, as he got ready to leave.

"Every two hours," he repeated.

Dresden came over to her, after saying goodbye to his kids. "Thanks for doing this," he said. "There's food in the kitchen, they'll eat whatever you put in front of them. Fay will help you find anything else you need. Mal naps around two everyday. Fay might lie down if she's tired, but don't worry if she doesn't. Uh... I think that's it. Don't invite anyone in. Keep them outside. If you get into trouble, Murphy's number is on the fridge."

Joan nodded. "Good luck," she said.

"Thanks!" he shot her a beaming smile, and went after Sherlock.

Joan turned around and found two young faces staring at her curiously. "So!" she began, in a cheerful voice. "What do you want to do? Where's the TV? We could watch a movie."

"We don't have a TV 'cause Daddy makes them 'splode," Fay informed her, matter-of-factly.

"Oh," Joan said. "What about a computer?" Fay shook her head. "Radio? No? Okay..."

Three days with two small children and no electronic entertainment. Yep. This was going to be a blast.

this is win win win.

>Besides, they're charming children. Not sticky at all. That's unusual.
I'm gonna guess Sherlock somehow ended up on diaper duty a lot before leaving England. :)

>'cause Daddy makes them 'splode,"
:) soooo much.

>Yep. This was going to be a blast.
that depends on if Dresden left his hockey stick. (that'd be a surprise if and when they do indoor sports)

thank you!!

Or possibly because there aren't actually three adults present. One, maybe two.
